I was not expecting the atmosphere to be sooo casual since the menu looks " fancy" and our server was absolutely rude. Never again

Very nice restaurant in a good location. The food was very good and the menu had a wide variety to choose from. The server was knowledgeable and prompt. Like all other restaurants after the pandemic, make sure and look at the menu for pricing. Nothing here is uncompetitive, but it seems expensive by the old standards. Facility is a nice old building on the downtown square.

Place is old, but not in a good way. Dingy bathrooms and as a whole, didn't seem that clean to me. The wine selection was bad and over priced (they are actually trying to push whitehaven for more than $40 a bottle) and our server had no idea what the house wine brand was. And no attention to the small details that make a place great rather than ok. They were out of items, we ordered the queso and the chips looked like cheap store-bought. Plus we clearly got the "bottom of the bag" because our plate was a pile of crumbs rather than chips. Entrees were over cooked. Not sure why I keep hearing people talk about this place. In my book it's a C- at best.

Upon attending the restaurant for our anniversary, my spouse and I were disheartened by the behavior of the Manager or General Manager on duty. Their noticeable impairment, discernible through olfactory cues and visible demeanor, was not only disruptive to our experience but also demonstrated a lack of professionalism. The Manager's discourteous interactions extended beyond us to their own staff, creating an unwelcome atmosphere. Such conduct is concerning, particularly in a food environment, raising questions about the establishment's commitment to maintaining a safe and respectful workplace. As someone with a background in health and safety, I am deeply disappointed by this occurrence and feel compelled to report it to the relevant authorities for further investigation. Instances of substance use in a professional setting not only jeopardize the well-being of staff but also pose potential risks to patrons. It is my sincere hope that corrective measures are taken swiftly to ensure the integrity of the establishment is restored.

Root Cellar Cafe delights with delectable French toast, eggs, and waffles. Dog-friendly and outdoor seating enhance the charming dining experience.
